Non-blind user wondering about TTS accessibility problems
I wrote this blueprint for a web app that would make it easier for people to build voices and languages for different TTS engines. It's vague, but it's a start if anyone wants to contribute to it or eventually create the real thing. Boosts appreciated, as always. https://github.com/lower-elements/Voice-Creator-Studio #TTS #Accessibility #AI #ML

1KB JS Numbers Station
https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2025/07/1kb-js-numbers-station/
Code Golf is the art/science of creating wonderful little demos in an artificially constrained environment. This year the js1024 competition was looking for entries with the theme of "Creepy".
I am not a serious bit-twiddler. I can't create JS shaders which produce intricate 3D worlds in a scrap of code. But I can use slightly obscure JavaScript APIs!
There's something deliciously creepy about Numbers Stations - the weird radio frequencies which broadcast seemingly random numbers and words. Are they spies communicating? Commands for nuclear missiles? Long range radio propagation tests? Who knows!
So I decided to build one. Play with the demo.
Obviously, even the most extreme opus compression can't fit much audio into 1KB. Luckily, JavaScript has you covered! Most modern browsers have a built-in Text-To-Speech (TTS) API.
Here's the most basic example:
JavaScriptm = new SpeechSynthesisUtterance;m.text = "Hello";speechSynthesis.speak(m);
Run that JS and your computer will speak to you!
In order to make it creepy, I played about with the rate (how fast or slow it speaks) and the pitch (how high or low).
JavaScriptm.rate=Math.random();m.pitch=Math.random()*2;
It worked disturbingly well! High pitched drawls, rumbling gabbling, the languid cadence of a chattering friend. All rather creepy.
But what could I make it say? Getting it to read out numbers is pretty easy - this will generate a random integer:
JavaScripts = Math.ceil( Math.random()*1000 );
But a list of words would be tricky. There's not much space in 1,024 bytes for anything complex. The rules say I can't use any external resources; so are there any internal sources of words? Yes!
JavaScriptObject.getOwnPropertyNames( globalThis );
That gets all the properties of the global object which are available to the browser! Depending on your browser, that's over 1,000 words!
But there's a slight problem. Many of them are quite "computery" words like "ReferenceError", "URIError", "Float16Array". I wanted all the single words - that is, anything which only has one capital letter and that's at the start.
JavaScriptconst l = (n) => { return ((n.match(/[A-Z]/g) || []).length === 1 && (n.charAt(0).match(/[A-Z]/g) || []).length === 1);};// Get a random result from the filters = Object.getOwnPropertyNames( globalThis ).filter( l ).sort( ()=>.5-Math.random() )[0]
Rather pleasingly, that brings back creepy words like "Event", "Atomics", and "Geolocation".
Of course, Numbers Stations don't just broadcast in English. The TTS system can vocalise in multiple languages.
JavaScript// Set the language to Russianm.lang = "ru-RU";
OK, but where do we get all those language strings from? Again, they're built in and can be retrieved randomly.
JavaScriptvar e = window.speechSynthesis.getVoices();m.lang = e[ (Math.random()*e.length) |0 ]
If you pass the TTS the number 555 and ask it to speak German, it will read out fünfhundertfünfundfünfzig.
And, if you tell the TTS to speak an English word like "Worker" in a foreign language, it will pronounce it with an accent.
Randomly altering the pitch, speed, and voice to read out numbers and dissociated words produces, I think, a rather creepy effect.
If you want to test it out, you can press this button. I find that it works best in browsers with a good TTS engine - let me know how it sounds on your machine.

With the remaining few bytes at my disposal, I produced a quick-and-dirty random pattern using Unicode drawing blocks. It isn't very sophisticated, but it does have a little random animation to it.
You can play with all the js1024 entries - I would be delighted if you voted for mine.
Hablemos de los TTS, antes era algo que ignoraba demasiado, pero recientemente lo veo como una utilidad para escribir mejor ciertas cosas, como el uso de las tildes
Hay una app de Google que viene prácticamente en cualquier teléfono (como casi todas) la cual cumple con esto, mi duda es, como se hara para quienes no tienen Google? Pues esta un poco complicada la cosa, al menos para mi que no me gusta tener dos apps si una sola puede hacerlo perfecto, aunque para evitar eso utilizo esta web pero para quienes lo quieran mas cómodo, aqui el dato
La cosa esta asi, la mayoría de alternativas no traen la funcion para que lea las palabras y eso que en teoria es un TTS, solo proporcionan la voz, asi que si quieren dicha funcion existe una app aparte...
La que proporciona la voz: RHVoice (Recomendada)
Para leer las palabras, con ayuda de la que proporciona la voz: TTS Util
Si, sería mas comodo que al menos RHVoice tuviera esa funcion ya implemetada, pero bueno, algo es algo...
Here's a quick demo on how to enable TTS on the Nintendo Switch 2 from the home screen. Hopefully these menus are the same across all devices, though I have no way to know that for certain.
@thelinuxEXP I really like Speech Note! It's a fantastic tool for quick and local voice transcription in multiple languages, created by @mkiol
It's incredibly handy for capturing thoughts on the go, conducting interviews, or making voice memos without worrying about language barriers. The app uses strictly locally running LLMs, and its ease of use makes it a standout choice for anyone needing offline transcription services.
I primarily use #WhisperAI for transcription and Piper for voice, but many other models are available as well.
It is available as flatpak and https://github.com/mkiol/dsnote

couldnt sleep so therefore architecturally reworked my little academia paper to mp3 app - have to admit that I see the point of #Python now + new google #tts voicegen is pretty slick.
Most fun part though was refactoring close to everything so the app is now architecturally solid - it follows principles for Clean Code using dependency injection, domain logic separation, modularity etc. Oh and proper tests <3 Again learning so much!

I've just gotten a hold of this console so I know nothing much yet, but I will learn more over the coming days and weeks.
This is a quick demo with me only having had access to it for about 30 minutes if that.
